LWAMI 3.09 Feedback Thread

I'm having some serious issues picking up subs with the bouys..maybe its just me...I gave up on the shallow water kilos which had to be right on top of the bouys to detect (1.5-3nm for even a faint detection..to 'go hot').

I moved on to deeper water a N. Atlantic Escort...couple of Project 636B lurking around.

I can not pick them up on sonar bouys at all..nada nothing..now because of the ships I am escorting they are all hot and showing them..but even with the subs right on top (literaly less than 2 - 1nm from bouy) I can't pick out thier signatures one bit.

Okay..so this may not be a LWAMI issue..all your patch notes say is lowered SL on active signatures for the smaller subs...But what do I do than? Fire blind torpedoes in the direction of where I 'think' there may be a sub? (you get a msg during mission saying poss sub 8k meters N of fleet).

I appologize if I'm ranting in the wrong place, any feedback is appreciated =)
